  2. Conductive charging - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conductive_charging

    The technology is sometimes called "conductive wireless charging". [1] The need for a conductor-to-conductor connection between the power supply and the device is the main difference from inductive charging and other forms of wireless charging. The conductive power supply, often a charging base or pad, detects when a compatible receiver or ...

  3. Triboelectric effect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Triboelectric_effect

    Illustration of triboelectric charging from contacting asperities. The details of how and why tribocharging occurs are not established science as of 2023. One component is the difference in the work function (also called the electron affinity) between the two materials. [48] This can lead to charge transfer as, for instance, analyzed by Harper.

  4. Charge density wave - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charge_density_wave

    A charge density wave (CDW) is an ordered quantum fluid of electrons in a linear chain compound or layered crystal. The electrons within a CDW form a standing wave pattern and sometimes collectively carry an electric current.

  5. Faraday's ice pail experiment - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Faraday's_ice_pail_experiment

    This is how charge is transferred to the top terminal of a Van de Graaff generator. [4] [7] The terminal is a hollow metal shell and functions as a Faraday pail. Charge is transported inside it on a moving belt, then removed from the belt by a wire attached to the inside of the terminal.

  6. Charge transport mechanisms - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charge_transport_mechanisms

    Similar to electron conduction, the electrical resistance of thin-film electrolytes depends on the applied electric field, such that when the thickness of the sample is reduced, the conductivity improves due to both the reduced thickness and the field-induced conductivity enhancement.

  7. Superconducting magnetic energy storage - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Superconducting_magnetic...

    The heat loads that must be removed by the cooling system include conduction through the support system, radiation from warmer to colder surfaces, AC losses in the conductor (during charge and discharge), and losses from the cold–to-warm power leads that connect the cold coil to the power conditioning system. Conduction and radiation losses ...

  8. Electrostatic induction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrostatic_induction

    This charge neutralizes the charge in the gold leaves, so the leaves come together again. The electroscope now contains a net charge opposite in polarity to that of the charged object. When the electrical contact to earth is broken, e.g. by lifting the finger, the extra charge that has just flowed into the electroscope cannot escape, and the ...

  9. Space charge - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Space_charge

    As an application example, the steady-state space-charge-limited current across a piece of intrinsic silicon with a charge-carrier mobility of 1500 cm 2 /V-s, a relative dielectric constant of 11.9, an area of 10 −8 cm 2 and a thickness of 10 −4 cm can be calculated by an online calculator to be 126.4 μA at 3 V. Note that in order for this ...
